Hanukkah 2015: The 7 Best Hanukkah Songs and Parodies

It's no secret that there's a scarcity of Hanukkah songs out there compared to the abundance of Christmas songs that infiltrate the radio, sometimes starting as early as November. Yet, like the small amount of oil burned for eight days in what became the miracle of Hanukkah, there are a few precious, hilarious parodies given airplay to celebrate the Jewish holiday.

Jewish a cappella group Six13 debuted a Hanukkah parody mashup of Drake's "Hotline Bling" and Silentó's "Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)" — and was featured in another, performing One Direction hits — this week, but the tradition of Hanukkah parodies is nothing new. Jewish comedian Adam Sandler made Hanukkah parodies a thing when he wrote and performed the "Hanukkah Song" on Saturday Night Live in 1994.

Sandler has written several follow-up Hanukkah songs since then about famous people that are Jewish. The tune inspired a collection of Hanukkah songs and video parodies that expands each holiday season.

Here are some of the most glorious Hanukkah song parodies of all time.
